Thanks, it does help, I’ll try triggering a 500 error in case of error.
I don’t remember where the code for our collect.php is originally from but there is something like this in it:
> $reply = "";
> if (preg_match('/QUERY>PROLOG<\/QUERY/', $xml)) {
>     $reply= '<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
>         <REPLY>
>            <RESPONSE>SEND</RESPONSE>
>            <PROLOG_FREQ>8</PROLOG_FREQ>
>         </REPLY>';
> } else {
>     $reply = '<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
>        <REPLY>
>        </REPLY>';

And at the end $reply is printed.
So it seems there is an XML reply which FI agent is reading no? Is there anything useful we can put in it?
What it the PROLOG part for?
